MEASUREMENT CRITERIA

1.- The measurements shall be done by a certified surveyor, appointed or approved by the Member in the country in which the pool is situated.

2.- The surveying equipment shall be a Total Station. The minimum requirements of the Total Station are the following:

- Angle Measurement Accuracy Hz and V: 1" (0.3 mgon)

- Distance Measurement Accuracy: 1mm + 1.5ppm

3.- The surveyor shall provide a Calibration Certificate confirming the measurement quality of surveying equipment. The certificate will have a

maximum validity of 1 year.

4.- All dimensions shall be measured using a mini prism or targets.

5.- The measurements corresponding to the FR 2.1, 2.2, 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 shall be measured with the pool full of water. The water level can be

lowered up to 5cm to avoid water reflection when measuring.

6.- The measurements corresponding to the FR 2.3, 2.4, 2.14 should be measured with the empty pool.

6.- The water temperature shall be 25º to 28 ºC.

7.- The length of the pool FR 2.1, 2.2 shall be measured in the centre of each lane.

8.- The width of the pool shall be measured in both ends of the pool.

9.- The depth of the pool FR 2.3 shall be measured at least in 5 points per lane: 1 m and 6 m from each end wall and in the centre of the pool.

10.- The verticality of the end walls FR 2.4 shall be measured in the centre of each lane. The end walls shall be vertical and form 90 degrees right

angles. The admissible tolerance in walls verticality will be ±0.30º.

ORTHOGONALITY OF THE POOL

The sides of the pool shall be orthogonal and form 90 degrees right angle. The tolerance of the angle is ±0.05º.

The 2 diagonals shall be the same length. The tolerance of the diagonal is 10mm.

FR 2.1 - 25.000 / 50.000 metres. When touch panels of Automatic Officiating Equipment are used on the starting end, or additionally on the

turning end, the pool must be of such length that ensures the required distance of 25.000 / 50.000 metres between the two panels.

FR 2.2 - Dimensional Tolerances

The admissible tolerance in 50.00 m / 25.00 m swimming pools will be +0.010, -0.000 metre. Tolerances will be measured as follows:

Wall to Wall : Minimum 50.020m / 25.020m - Maximum 50.030m / 25.030m

Tolerances have to be consistent 0.300 metre above to 0.800 metre bellow the water surface. These measurements should be certified by a

surveyor or other qualified official, appointed or approved by the Member in the country in which the pool is situated.

FR 2.12.1 - Water temperature shall be 25° to 28°.

FR 2.12.2 - Water Movement. During competition the water in the pool must be at

a constant level, with no appreciable movement.

In order to keep the water level, preserve the transparency of water and take into

consideration the health regulations in force in most countries, inflow and outflow

has to be regulated as follows:

- 220 to 250 m3/h for 50.00 m pools

- 150 to 180 m3/h for 33.33 m pools

- 120 to 150 m3/h for 25.00 m pools

In daily use, inflow and outflow has to follow the health regulation of each country

At these turnover rates, the water distribution has to be such that no appreciable

current or turbulence is created.

Appreciable current or turbulence test should be done as detailed in the FR2.12.2

The video/s and an annexe with at least 6 frames (1 frame / 10 seconds) per test

shall be issued

Width: minimum 0.2 metre, maximum 0.3 metre.

Length: 46.0 metres for 50 metre long pools / 21.0 metres for 25 metre long pools.

Each lane line shall end 2.0* metres from the end wall of the pool with a distinctive

cross line 1.0 metre long and of the same width as the lane line. Target lines shall be placed on the end walls or on the touch panels, in the

centre of each lane, of the same width as the lane lines. *Pool length tolerances must be considered.

They shall extend without interruption from the deck edge (curb), to the floor of the pool to a maximum of 3 metres. A cross line 0.5 metre long

shall be placed 0.3 metre below the water surface, measured to the centre point of the cross line.

For 50m and 25m pools constructed after 1 January 2006, cross lines 0.5 metre long shall be placed at the 15 metre mark from each end of

the pool. After October 2013 this shall be measured from the end wall to the centre point of the cross line.

smooth, non-slippery stable vertical surface on which touch pads may be mounted extending not less than 0.8m below and 0.3m above the

surface of the water, and must be free of hazardous openings above or below the waterline which may be penetrated by a swimmer’s

hands, feet, toes or fingers. A bulkhead must be of a design that provides for the free movement of officials along its length without such

movement creating any appreciable current or water turbulence.
